bindfs [OPTIONS] source mountpoint

bindfs mounts a directory to another location with different ownership and permissions. It uses FUSE to create a view of a directory tree with modified permissions.

--map= user1/user2

Map ownership from user1 to user2

Force all files to appear owned by user

Force all files to appear owned by group

Set permission bits for all files

Pass FUSE mount options

Changes to ownership mapping are bidirectional - newly created files are mapped back. Requires FUSE support. Use umount to unmount the bindfs filesystem.

bindfs is a FUSE filesystem for mounting directories with altered permissions.
